When a staged user tried to redeem an invite, a different username was
suggested and manually typing the staged username failed because the
username was not available.
* FEATURE: Redirect logged in user to invite topic
Users who were already logged in and were given an invite link to a
topic used to see an error message saying that they already have an
account and cannot redeem the invite. This commit amends that behavior
and redirects the user directly to the topic, if they can see it.
* FEATURE: Add logged in user to invite groups
Users who were already logged in and were given an invite link to a
group used to see an error message saying that they already have an
account and cannot redeem the invite. This commit amends that behavior
and adds the user to the group.
There are two methods which the server uses to verify an invite is being redeemed with a matching email:
1) The email token, supplied via a `?t=` parameter
2) The validity of the email, as provided by the auth provider
Only one of these needs to be true for the invite to be redeemed successfully on the server. The frontend logic was previously only checking (2). This commit updates the frontend logic to match the server.
This commit does not affect the invite redemption logic. It only affects the 'show' endpoint, and the UI.
* FIX: Ensure the same email cannot be invited twice
When creating a new invite with a duplicated email, the old invite will
be updated and returned. When updating an invite with a duplicated email
address, an error will be returned.
* FIX: not Ember helper does not exist
* FIX: Sync can_invite_to_forum? and can_invite_to?
The two methods should perform the same basic set of checks, such as
check must_approve_users site setting.
Ideally, one of the methods would call the other one or be merged and
that will happen in the future.
* FIX: Show invite to group if user is group owner
The server used to respond with a generic 'error, contact admin' message
which did not offer any hint what the error was. This happened even when
the error could be easily corrected by the user (for example, if they
chose a very common password).
When invited by email, users will receive an invite URL which contains
a token. If that token is present when the invite is redeemed, their
account will be automatically activated.
In Improve invite system, a newly created link only invite cannot
be retrieved via API with the invitee's email once created. A new
route, /invites/retrieve, is introduced to fetch an already
created invite by email address.
Admins can use bulk invites to pre-populate user fields. The imported
CSV file must have a header with "email" column (first position) and
names of the user fields (exact match).
Under the hood, the bulk invite will create staged users and populate
the user fields of those.
This PR allows invitations to be used when the DiscourseConnect SSO is enabled for a site (`enable_discourse_connect`) and local logins are disabled. Previously invites could not be accepted with SSO enabled simply because we did not have the code paths to handle that logic.
The invitation methods that are supported include:
* Inviting people to groups via email address
* Inviting people to topics via email address
* Using invitation links generated by the Invite Users UI in the /my/invited/pending route
The flow works like this:
1. User visits an invite URL
2. The normal invitation validations (redemptions/expiry) happen at that point
3. We store the invite key in a secure session
4. The user clicks "Accept Invitation and Continue" (see below)
5. The user is redirected to /session/sso then to the SSO provider URL then back to /session/sso_login
6. We retrieve the invite based on the invite key in secure session. We revalidate the invitation. We show an error to the user if it is not valid. An additional check here for invites with an email specified is to check the SSO email matches the invite email
7. If the invite is OK we create the user via the normal SSO methods
8. We redeem the invite and activate the user. We clear the invite key in secure session.
9. If the invite had a topic we redirect the user there, otherwise we redirect to /
Note that we decided for SSO-based invites the `must_approve_users` site setting is ignored, because the invite is a form of pre-approval, and because regular non-staff users cannot send out email invites or generally invite to the forum in this case.
Also deletes some group invite checks as per https://github.com/discourse/discourse/pull/12353
* FIX: Do not show expired invites under Pending tab
* DEV: Controller action was renamed in previous commit
* FEATURE: Add 'Expired' tab to invites
* FEATURE: Refresh model after removing expired invites
* FEATURE: Do not immediately add invite to the list
Opening the 'create-invite' modal used to automatically generate an
invite to reserve an invite link. If the user did not save it and
closed the modal, the invite would be destroyed. This operations caused
the invite list to change in the background and confuse users.
* FEATURE: Sort redeemed users by creation time
* UX: Improve show / hide advanced options link
* FIX: Show redeemed users even if invites were trashed
* UX: Change modal title when editing invite
* UX: Remove Get Link button
Users can get it from the edit modal
* FEATURE: Add limit for invite links generated by regular users
* FEATURE: Add option to skip email
* UX: Show better error messages
* FIX: Show "Invited by" even if invite was trashed

* FEATURE: Add button to save without sending email
Follow up to c86379a465f28a3cc64a4a8c939cf32cf2931659.
* DEV: Use a buffer to hold all changed data
* FEATURE: Close modal after save
* FEATURE: Rate limit resend invite email
* FEATURE: Make the save buttons smarter
* FEATURE: Do not always send email even for new invites
A missing email when accepting an invite link does not make sense so we
should make it a required param which helps to catch bugs in our test
suite and also prevent potential bugs in our code base when the code
trips on a `nil` email.
The user interface has been reorganized to show email and link invites
in the same screen. Staff has more control over creating and updating
invites. Bulk invite has also been improved with better explanations.
On the server side, many code paths for email and link invites have
been merged to avoid duplicated logic. The API returns better responses
with more appropriate HTTP status codes.
The 'Discourse SSO' protocol is being rebranded to DiscourseConnect. This should help to reduce confusion when 'SSO' is used in the generic sense.
This commit aims to:
- Rename `sso_` site settings. DiscourseConnect specific ones are prefixed `discourse_connect_`. Generic settings are prefixed `auth_`
- Add (server-side-only) backwards compatibility for the old setting names, with deprecation notices
- Copy `site_settings` database records to the new names
- Rename relevant translation keys
- Update relevant translations
This commit does **not** aim to:
- Rename any Ruby classes or methods. This might be done in a future commit
- Change any URLs. This would break existing integrations
- Make any changes to the protocol. This would break existing integrations
- Change any functionality. Further normalization across DiscourseConnect and other auth methods will be done separately
The risks are:
- There is no backwards compatibility for site settings on the client-side. Accessing auth-related site settings in Javascript is fairly rare, and an error on the client side would not be security-critical.
- If a plugin is monkey-patching parts of the auth process, changes to locale keys could cause broken error messages. This should also be unlikely. The old site setting names remain functional, so security-related overrides will remain working.
A follow-up commit will be made with a post-deploy migration to delete the old `site_settings` rows.
A more general, lower-level change in addition to #11950.
Most code paths already check if SSO is enabled or if local logins are disabled before trying to create an email invite.
This is a safety net to ensure no invalid invites sneak by.
Also includes:
FIX: Don't allow to bulk invite when SSO is on (or when local logins are disabled)
This mirrors can_invite_to_forum? and other email invite code paths.
* Add timezone to user_options table
* Also migrate existing timezone values from UserCustomField,
which is where the discourse-calendar plugin is storing them
* Allow user to change their core timezone from Profile
* Auto guess & set timezone on login & invite accept & signup
* Serialize user_options.timezone for group members. this is so discourse-group-timezones can access the core user timezone, as it is being removed in discourse-calendar.
* Annotate user_option with timezone
* Validate timezone values
DEV: deprecate `invite.via_email` in favor of `invite.emailed_status`
This commit adds a new column `emailed_status` in `invites` table for
tracking email sending status.
0 - not required
1 - pending
2 - bulk pending
3 - sending
4 - sent
For normal email invites, invite record is created with emailed_status
set to 'pending'.
When bulk invites are sent invite record is created with emailed_status
set to 'bulk pending'.
For invites that generates link, invite record is created with
emailed_status set to 'not required'.
When invite email is in queue emailed_status is updated to 'sending'
Once the email is sent via `InviteEmail` job the invite emailed_status
is updated to 'sent'.
* Introduced fab!, a helper that creates database state for a group
It's almost identical to let_it_be, except:
1. It creates a new object for each test by default,
2. You can disable it using PREFABRICATION=0
This change both speeds up specs (less strings to allocate) and helps catch
cases where methods in Discourse are mutating inputs.
Overall we will be migrating everything to use #frozen_string_literal: true
it will take a while, but this is the first and safest move in this direction
It is not a setting, and only relevant in specs. The new API is:
```
Jobs.run_later! # jobs will be thrown on the queue
Jobs.run_immediately! # jobs will run right away, avoid the queue
```
Do not send an activation email to users invited via email. They
already confirmed their email address by clicking the invite link.
Users invited via link will need to confirm their email address before
they can login.
This updates tests to use latest rails 5 practice
and updates ALL dependencies that could be updated
Performance testing shows that performance has not regressed
if anything it is marginally faster now.
